Any home remedies for sore clogged milk ducts other than warm compress?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cabbage leaves: have been commonly recommended to help ease the discomfort of engorgement and early mastitis. They are cooled and placed against the skin inside of a bra or snug shirt for up to 2 hours. Comfrey, Calendula, Rosemary, Dandelion and Marshmallow root applied as a poultice/compress for 5-10 minutes may also help.
